From the last story: "We always underestimate how much other people in our country care about this problem." When the world is flooded with negativity, it makes us feel isolated, and that's exactly what the bad actors want. That's why this channel matters. The more we hear about the positive changes happening in the world, the more connected we become and the more change we can make. Thank you Sam for all you do!

Your right I am currently in a ...phase i don't really wanna talk about and dont know how to get out of this in the near future Anyway currently in youtube germany there are like 3 very similar partner violence drama/skandals at once And while watching a little drama is great entertainment, and helps taking the mind off the own problems. But beeing sourrunded by the drama the whole time, the reaction channels you watch just react or talk about them , you get perma confronted, etc etc just drags you down again, just like you said with the top of your comment

I learned in my environmental sociology class that while understanding the severity of a problem is important to losing people to want to act to fix said problem, flooding them with to much negativity makes them pessimistic and hopeless and leds likely to actually act. Therefore hope is a very important emotion to idk in people since it gives them the motivation to actually act. It's a balance to convey the need for action while still showing that action will indeed cause positive change.

It's one of capitalism's flaws - bad news get more reactions - comments, shares, etc. its all about having bigger numbers now

I think instead of starting with a bouquet of roses and throwing them away from each story, you should receive a rose for each story and end with a beautiful bouquet!

I really needed this as a break from doomscrolling & the current depressing state of the world. Thanks for brightening our day a bit. I especially liked the Everglades being restored to its natural flow, as a Florida resident.

I'm glad that second-hand clothes are starting to go from "poor, ewww" to something which is considered environmentally friendly. Charity shops are such lovely, charming places, and it's no wonder boomers especially love them. There's little quite like a local charity shop :)

Charity shops are subject to corruption like everything else under financial capitalism. Important to patronize only those with real non-profit and charitable behaviors. I expect we will eventually see private equity attempt to capture even this.

A butterfly followed me for a whole block today during my walk and sat on a flower next to the bench I chose to sit on. There was a teenager who was at another bench who saw the butterfly flying and land next to me. It brought smiles all around. I did also stop to smell the roses today.

I'm always happy to see these every month, because it's pretty hard when news only focuses on the terrible events despite the fact that there are good people, trying to make a change in the world for the better.

I post your videos on my FB page. I hope others will do the same. And those with connections to the media might share them, too. We are so buried under the weight of bad news, it's easy to forget there are people out there doing amazingly good things for our planet every day. Thanks for sharing that with us.

😊 Thanks for the good news! At 68 I am late to the game, but I joined the National Wildlife Federation this year and became vegan in January 2023. It's a start.

FYI, this video popped up for me today courtesy of the algorithm. I clicked on it because of the title, thinking it would contain stories across a range of topics (e.g. medical breakthroughs, survival stories etc). I was not disappointed at all that it's all about environmental issues. I liked and subscribed, then watched your March video. I notice your views from Feb to March went from 17k to 47k! Good luck to you, I hope your channel gets to a million subscribers and upwards. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋p.s, the audio in your March video was much better.

I'll start cooking up next months soon!

I went to highschool in Florida and took a class on Florida History (from Spanish conquest on). One of the things we learned about was the devastating effect that blocking the lake had on the everglades. There are/were big sugarcane plantations that used that water and farmland, and naturally they have lots of money to lobby. It is very good news to hear that the project is going forward, and that positive change is happening.

Wow! So good to hear these stories. We all need more good news. Thank you!!❤

Just found this channel. It's great to hear so much good news. Thank you

Channels spreading good news is what we really need now when a majority of main news tends to favor bad and controversial news .

I absolutely love all these positive stories ❤

I really enjoy these monthly good news alerts. The regular news programs are very good at reporting “bad” news. I wish they would make an effort to bring some “good” news also!

Sam, you are an angel. I have been feeling this inescapable dread about the climate emergency and the lack of mainstream media channels covering real problems and real solutions. Your channel and videos are like a breath of fresh air after a gas chamber-like experience with popular news and media. It gives me much hope and strength to watch your videos. I wish you awesome luck with your channel and am grateful to you for bringing these news out to us!

I need more good news like this. I'm tired of waking up and having my day ruined by another depressing news article. Thank you for spreading good news :)))))

That's exactly what I was looking for today. I'm astonished that there isn't a channel for uplifting news like that. Congratulations. I would also like to suggest offering flowers to people who might seem gloomy on the streets next time. Thank you for giving us some good news to start the day.
